About us
We want to and will make it easy for schools to keep their staff, pupils, parents, partners, other stake-holders and wider community informed, updated and engaged.

Now, by merely typing in the text you can do it too!

It's so easy even 7 year old children can do it. If you are able to move a mouse, click a few buttons and string a few sentences together you can maintain a cutting edge site.

We'll give you all the training you'll need, support you on the phone or with email, all to make sure you get the best out of your investment.

Our killer features are:
Superb content management and blog software. Excellent Google optimisation.
An email to weblog interface, making updating your school blog a doddle. 
Top draw support and feedback.

I wish I could remember my first day
Leeds' Pudsey Grangefield Maths & Computing College: Welcome to Grangefield!: "Our friends in the photo have both enjoyed their first days at Grangefield and even though they have got slightly lost a couple of times, they are really enjoying their new school and have found everyone to be helpful and friendly."

I wish I had been told to write (on a blog) a text of my first day at Aberdare Boys' Grammar School. My first days were great. Just went down hill after that.

teach me how My posters have been going down well. So, I've added some more to my Scheme of Work: ICT Writing for Different Audiences (year 4).

They really do add the revolution to the revolution :-) All tongue in cheek of course.

Something I try to keep in mind
Cool Cat Teacher: Perspective: "In the maelstrom of activity marking the beginning of school it is important to keep perspective. With the drumbeat of the urgent propelling us to work late into the night, we often miss the soft tap on the shoulder of the important. There have been several life changing times when I have awakened by the cold bucket of water called perspective...."

Read the whole post. You may change your life. Perhaps you'll blog about it like I do

Sunny Llandudno's back
Marc Hughes, the Head at Craig y Don's back at school with a working computer at last, and posts a lovely laid out post and lots of luscious news.
  • School swimming champ joins the school.
  • Won a British Council International School Award for connections to foreign schools and learning languages. (Must get some of those foreign schools to interconnect via blogs, not just the email.)
  • And everybody's a year older and there's a new intake.
I've got to get myself up there PDQ, see how I can help more. Not that they need much from the news flow coming out.
